Welcome To Our Journal
We are back home!
Welcome family and friends to our adoption!
You have to click JOURNAL (above and to the left) to see our new entries and read about us.
Well,all the pets survived the trip, but they may not survive the new addition. Turns out she LOVES dogs and cats, and squeals with delight as she pulls their ears, tails, and even eyes! Poor Chad stood under the highchair last night begging for Sophie to drop him some food while she laughed and giggled and kicked him in the face.
We are all glad to be home, and working hard to re-adjust to LA time, and life as a family, a family that isn't just spending each day sight-seeing and shopping!
Thanks for visiting!
